Talk about horror versions of Pokémon and Animal Crossing reminded me of this thing I did a while back, figuring that AC: New Horizons was ripe for a cosmic horror spin-off…

We will continue to post the public episodes to Acast, they've just discontinued support for private ones. No reason has been given, so we're assuming it's to drive platform lock-in for Patreon, which will be described as "platform innovation". We will all endure.

HELLO. An administrative notice for the special sausages: we are no longer able to distribute premium episodes via Acast, so you will need to get them from the private Patreon RSS feed. You're probably doing that already, but if not there's a guide to that here: support.patreon.com/hc/en-gb/art...

A wholehearted recommendation for everyone interested in video games and banter. The Patreon episodes are great too btw. The bit where they guessed games based on a character from that game calling in was top notch (one of many)!

This episode includes possibly the most tedious game feature request imaginable. But we also found out how Alice will kill Nate so there's good lore in there too.

A message to our followers.

A white text on black background image, making an April Fool's Day joke about the game industry.

Text:

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the cancellation of the joke.

Our hope was to give our followers the highest quality joke possible, but unfortunately this is no longer aligned with our strategic priorities.

This was a tough decision, but we remain focused on delivering high-quality jokes to our followers as we bring our account back to profitability and growth. We believe that streamlining our posts will allow us to drive creativity and create new opportunities for jokes in the future.

To all of our followers who have supported the joke through development, thank you for your trust and passion. We’re sorry to have let you down.

Followers who preordered the joke will be refunded.
